What we saw Saturday was the potential of this ND team - albeit a rough potential! Nevertheless, it provided a snapshot of what this team can do when all the pieces are engaged and functioning well for large portions of the game. What we need to see moving forward is that potential developed, polished and become the performance benchmark for the team. If so, we can end up not just with a good season but the foundation for a program on the rise. I think we will learn a lot about this team and its coaching staff over the next several weeks....
